I don't think it will be a buyout but I expect a much more favorable relationship. As stated in the conf. call, NT and SHVA both agree that SHVA is contributing mission critical technology to NT's very popular Power Networks. NT need to make this a rewarding situation for SHVA. There's no advantage to screwing them. That said, a buyout is a possibility and I would guess it will be in the low to mid-20's using NT stock which has done quite well. SHVA could reprice it's mgt. options so they come out o.k.. I'm putting my $$ where my mouth is because I bought 30 calls on top of the 1k shares I own at 12.

What a stock! When market goes up, Shive goes down. When market goes down, Shiva holds! Shiva's products win a lot of awards, but the stock is moving south. Other companies don't win as many awards, but their shares are moving up. I guess other companies are too busy making money to worry about awards ! On a more serious note, it was nice for Shiva to close unchanged when the market fell by 100 points. Was it a brief pause before it finally closes below $10? Stay tuned! Ed.
